Super Role Player

One of the most eye-catching aspects of this slam dunk contest is the return of Anxi.

The last time Anxi participated in the All-Star Slam Dunk Contest, he was just a small player for the Spurs. After just two or three seasons, Anxi actually grew into the league's number one superstar. This is not the most surprising thing. The most surprising thing is that he became the league's top star. After becoming the league's top star, Anxi actually announced that he would participate in the dunk contest.

You know, in the dunk contest in recent years, the league's All-Stars have been unwilling to participate. Even Blake Griffin, who is famous for his dunks, has stopped after winning the dunk title once. LeBron James has several times They said they wanted to participate in the dunk contest, but they broke their contracts several times. The new generation of James Harden, Russell Westbrook and Kevin Durant all refused to participate in the dunk contest.

The reason is simple. They are already superstars and do not need a dunk contest to increase their exposure and popularity. They may even worry about losing fans if the dunk contest does not perform well.

Therefore, in this context, Anxi's announcement to participate in the dunk contest is obviously an act worth encouraging.

NBA fans are very excited, and league president Adam Silver is also very happy. He appreciates Anxi's approach, because Anxi's approach is obviously helping the league develop the fan market. Anxi's approach made Adam Silver think of Previous bans.

Now, Adam Silver is glad that Anxi's suspension was reduced at that time. Otherwise, where would he find stars like Anxi who are considerate of the league?

What's more, Anxi's performance this season has been so explosive. In the 52 games before the All-Star Weekend, Anxi played in 46 of them, averaging 33.8 points, 5.8 rebounds, 9.6 assists, 3.2 steals and 1.4 steals per game. Blocks, such a statistic, is obviously a historical average per game.

In addition, Anxi also has 8 consecutive 50+ games, 101 points in a single game, 13 three-pointers in a single game, five-double miracles and other shocking performances. If Anxi’s personal performance so far in this All-Star Game is also included, This season, Anxi may have the strongest individual season in NBA history.

If future generations talk about this season, they will definitely call it the "Anxi" season.

This slam dunk contest returns to the classic format. It will no longer be divided into east and west competitions, and the audience outside the court will no longer decide the final dunk king. The league will invite five celebrities to serve as judges for this slam dunk contest.

The five judges of this slam dunk contest are New York Knicks star Walter Frazier and Bernard King, Philadelphia 76ers star Julius Erving, Warriors star Chris Mullin and Kings and Celtics star Nate A. Chibold.

The four players who participated in the dunk contest were drawn first. Anxi drew No. 1. He was the first to appear, followed by Victor Oladipo, the third was Giannis Antetokounmpo, and Zach LaVine was the last. An appearance.

Anxi was the first to appear, and he was under great pressure. His first performance had to be wonderful and amazing. Therefore, after much thought, Anxi decided to put the dunk originally planned for the second dunk into the first dunk.

For the first dunk, Anxi found a helper. Anxi stood on the sidelines and waved her hand. Abby, who had successfully lost weight after pregnancy, stood up from the sidelines with a smile, and then walked to the sidelines.

Anxi had made arrangements in advance, but before the competition, Anxi was still a little worried and ran over to give a few more instructions.

The audience on the sidelines saw Anxi and Abby whispering intimately face to face. The sudden arrival of dog food caused a burst of noise from the audience, with some joking boos and screams.

Anxi smiled, waved his hand towards the sidelines, and then walked to the center line, ready to start his first dunk.

In the first dunk, Anxi didn't have the ball in his hands. The ball was in Abby's hands. Abby was standing on the left sideline at a 45° angle. Anxi made a gesture and then rushed forward.

Abby also threw the basketball.

Anxi's first dunk is already taking shape. Abby throws the ball.

Anxi caught the ball in the air and then dunked.

However, the problem is that it is still unknown how Anxi will smash the ball.

The slam dunk contest was the most exciting game on the second day of the All-Star Game. As soon as the game started, the audience on the sidelines became active. Some even stood up and took pictures with their mobile phones, not wanting to miss any shot.

When Anxi rushed to the free throw line, kicked the ground suddenly, and jumped up, several screams suddenly sounded from the scene.

"Free throw line! Is Anxi going to recreate the free throw line?"

Many people have questions. Some people think that taking off from the free throw line and dunking is very exciting. This dunk will be very exciting. Some people think that if it is just a simple taking off from the free throw line and dunking, the difficulty and creativity of this dunk will be. Not too bad.

The last time Anxi participated in the dunk contest, he dunked from the free throw line. With the gimmick that yellow people can fly, he finally won the honor of dunk king.

But the gimmick cannot be used twice, so if Anxi uses it again this time, the score will definitely not be high unless there are other changes.

Soon, Anxi showed the difference in this dunk.

Catching the basketball in the air, a success!

After receiving the basketball, the most difficult change in Anxi's dunk occurred. He stretched out his belly in the air, soaring over the arena like a big bird, grabbing the ball with one hand, Dunk!

There was a loud bang, and everyone in the audience screamed!

"Dunk! Dunk! Dunk!" Kenny Smith was very excited in the commentary box.

This ball is so beautiful!

"Take off from the free throw line, alley-oop, and tomahawk dunk! Wow! It's so shocking. No one thought that these different dunks would be combined together. This ball is so beautiful!"

"The difficulty has increased, the creativity has increased, and it even pays tribute to the classics!" Charles Barkley, who knows the inside story, knows that Anxi's dunk also pays tribute to the classics.

With this dunk, Anxi paid tribute to the classic take-off dunk from the free throw line, making the classic never fade.

Anxi succeeded with one dunk. After the dunk, Anxi hugged Abby who was waiting aside, and then began to wait for the judges' scores.

Not surprisingly, this dunk, which was difficult, creative and tribute-worthy, finally received five 10 points from the five judges!

Anxi's first dunk in this dunk contest! 50 points! Full marks!

With the applause of the audience, Anxi first sent Abby back to her seat, and then sat on the sidelines herself.

After scoring 50 points for the first dunk, Anxi could temporarily breathe a sigh of relief. Next, he only had to wait for his three opponents to finish the first dunk before deciding which one to use for his second dunk.

Victor Oladipo came on the court. Before he came on the court, he pulled a stunt and walked out of the tunnel singing, looking like a singing superstar.

Then, Victor Oladipo performed a shocking 360-degree turn and dunked back with both hands, and the dunk went into the bag with a clang, and the audience instantly burst into high-decibel cheers.

In the end, the judges on site also followed public opinion and gave Oladipo a perfect score of 50 points.

Another perfect score. The ones who are under great pressure at this time are Giannis Antetokounmpo and Zach LaVine who have not yet played.

Giannis Antetokounmpo came on the court. Perhaps he was affected by the first two 50 points, and his first dunk was abnormal.

Antetokounmpo wanted to try a self-throw and dunk. His physical fitness is indeed superb, and his jumping and wingspan are quite terrifying. However, he tried this dunk many times without success, and in the end he only got a 30-point score. Comfort points.

Zach LaVine made his final appearance. Zach LaVine was also one of the highlights of this slam dunk contest. Before he participated in the draft, Zach LaVine was famous for his explosive dunks and was hailed as a new generation of flying man.

Compared with Victor Oladipo, who previously deducted full points, Zach LaVine is the one who is considered to compete with Anxi to the end, but now, Victor Oladipo also scored 50 points, which forced Zach LaVine to compete with Anxi to the end. Craven must also work towards 50 points.

For the first dunk, Zach LaVine changed his jersey directly on the sidelines. He put on Michael Jordan's No. 23 Bulls jersey. Obviously, this was also a tribute to a classic dunk.

After getting the ball, Zach LaVine took the ball from the baseline. After dribbling calmly and accelerating, Zach LaVine gracefully soared into the air and changed hands under his crotch to complete a reflexive dunk!

Tribute to the classic! This shot was directed at Zach LaVine, who was also watching from the sidelines. After a successful dunk, the entire audience went crazy.

The referees on the sidelines also raised the scoring boards of 10 points, 10 points, 10 points, 10 points, 10 points, giving Zach LaVine a perfect score of 50 points.

"Zach LaVine's dunk is very smooth and his bounce is very high. These are Zach LaVine's intangible advantages. He dunked three full points in the first round. This dunk contest is great to watch!"

Except for Giannis Antetokounmpo who performed abnormally and scored 30 points and was eliminated early, the other three all scored 50 points for their first dunk. The suspense of the dunk contest still continues.

In the second round of the preliminaries, Anxi was still the first to appear. For this dunk, he would continue to pay tribute to the classic and continue to take off from the free throw line and dunk.

Before this dunk, Anxi also changed his jersey.

Julius Erving, who was serving as a judge on the sidelines, was stunned for a moment, and then smiled.

Anxi is paying tribute to Julius Erving's classic.

Over there, Zach LaVine had just paid tribute to Michael Jordan, and Anxi was about to pay tribute to Dr. J. Anxi put on the 76ers' retro jersey, Dr. J's No. 6 jersey, and then stood in the center of the court.

This dunk was done by Anxi himself with the ball as a run-up, without anyone's help, but with the Dr. J's jersey on his body, it was enough creatively.

Holding the ball and rushing to the free throw line, Anxi jumped up in exactly the same way.

"It's the free throw line again!"

In the last free throw line takeoff and dunk, Anxi made many changes, including an alley-oop and a tomahawk dunk.

What changes will Anxi make this time?

In everyone's expectant eyes, the next second, Anxi continued to fly. After approaching the basket, he held the ball in the air with one hand and waved. A shocking big windmill made a clang, and in the exclamation of the audience, he succeeded in a dunk. !

"50 points! Definitely a 50-point dunk!"

"Salute to Julius Erving! He took off from the free throw line and dunked, but the difference is that Anxi added a 360° windmill in the air. This dunk was too difficult, too big!"

Sure enough, the five judges scored five 10 points and another 50 points. Not surprisingly, Anxi will be the first to advance to the finals.

Victor Oladipo came out, and he was very nervous about this dunk. After Anxi scored his second 50 points, the game will begin between him and Zach LaVine.

With this goal, Victor Oladipo did another trick. He walked to the sidelines, first grabbed a basketball, then took it to the sidelines and asked the famous Hakeem Olajuwon to sign it, and then he called His teammate Alfred Payton, the two of them cooperated and accelerated from the baseline at the same time. Alfred Payton threw the ball and Victor Oladipo received the ball in the air. This cooperation was relatively male, so he failed continuously. several times.

The last time, Victor Oladipo caught the basketball in the air, turned 180° in the air, and dunked back.

But in the end, the ball was not difficult enough and only 39 points were scored.

This 39 points means that the preliminaries showdown is basically over, Anxi advances early, and Zach LaVine, who will appear last, will advance to the finals as long as he performs normally.

Although the chance of advancement is high, Zach LaVine was still very careful with his final dunk.

He used his famous stunt, throwing the ball into the air, then taking off in one step. After catching the ball, he changed hands behind his back in the air and completed a dunk with a bang.

Full marks! Another perfect score!

Zach LaVine followed closely in Anxi's footsteps and advanced to the finals with the same two perfect scores.

Anxi deeply felt the threat of Zach LaVine to him, so in the first dunk of the final, Anxi changed his original plan.

In the final round, Anxi and Zach LaVine had the same points, so the order in which the two played was determined by drawing lots again.

Zach LaVine dunked first, so Anxi could sit comfortably on the sidelines and watch Zach LaVine's first dunk.

In Zach LaVine's first dunk of the final, he called for teammate Andrew Wiggins. After receiving a pass from Wiggins, he jumped up and dunked with his hands.

This action was still exciting, but compared to the two dunks in the preliminaries, it was a bit eclipsed. In the end, I only scored 45 points.

The first dunk in the Anxi finals still inherited the dunk from the preliminaries, and was still a take-off dunk from the free throw line.

Different from the previous alley-oop tomahawk dunk at the free throw line and the windmill dunk at the free throw line, this time he once again made the free throw line dunk more difficult.

While flying through the air, he actually changed hands under such a difficult situation. After approaching the basket, he dunked in angrily.

This dunk is extremely difficult. If Anxi scores another 50 points, all the pressure will be on Zach LaVine.

Zach LaVine's last dunk was because he was already 5 points behind in the first dunk. Therefore, Zach LaVine took this dunk very seriously. He decided to infinitely increase the difficulty of the last dunk.

Zach LaVine is about to come up with his bottom-of-the-box dunk. This is his last chance.
